Hi Elke, Kara here. Really good topic. Glad to hear it was a great event this last weekend!
Hi Elke, Kara here... omg just finally listened... I can't believe all of this! I truly hope the rheumatologist was able to diagnose you today and help! So praying for you and answers. 🙏🙏💕🙏🙏
just listen to your last podcast from Monday and it is excellent, of course! I completely agree that marriage trends have changed from when I was in my 20s and 30s. There's a friend in their 40s and they still do not have children, but would love to have children! I'm sure that they will at some point. It just shows you that people are waiting to have children.
Kara here! excellent podcast Elke! Love the 4 Agreements and your analysis! Thank you for mentioning me as well! Can't wait to hear your new speakers? This Wednesday! But I think your voice sounds great!
Hi Elke, Kara here! Yes, I can definitely relate to the ghosting phenomenon. I will share more via messenger, but this is definitely a good topic. Good podcast as always. You have very interesting information to share. Keep up the great work and I will be listening to some of your other platforms today!
awesome knowledge and it is even better with video
amazing with your new partner
Kara here Elke:) Just listened and this is another very good podcast from you. In spite of this life changing health news about what you have which is awful crazy, it took so long to get to, you are speaking about ways to remain positive and I will tell you that there are so many who will be Able to relate to you who may be going through difficult times themselves. May be in different situations. Bless you friend 🙏
I breathe in through the nose to a count of 4 and breathe out through the mouth to a count of 6. It puts a space between thoughts and emotions and allows clarity and concentration. Since I’m a professional driver I also meditate when I drive.

Hi Elke! Tom and I listened to your VERY interesting podcast! Your topic on women waiting to have children or not having children at all is a very real thing! So very interesting! Really enjoyed it. So cute you were tiptoeing around so as not to offend anyone while getting your point out there appropriately! 🤗and I get that too! Now a days you want to take people's potential feelings into consideration :) Especially thank you for your shout out to both our stores. Really appreciate you so much! Lastly, I hope the healing ❤️🩹 is coming soon and getting closer for you to find answers. 🙏🙏
